Underrated? This song was on the radio nonstop in the '90s. Like it was literally everywhere. So tired of people who don't get what "underrated" means. 😆
They were so freakin good live. One of the best I have ever seen. When I saw them around 96 or 97, they opened with Low. Pretty ballsy considering it was really was/is their most well known song. It is like they wanted to get it out of the way to put it out of everyone's mind.
God I love this song so much brings back good time memories of a younger me that was happy and jamming in an old 80s Chrysler to a timeless rock anthem.
Absolutely the greatest song to come out of the Nineties!! Hand's Down!! How many song's have been played in Sporting Events . This one and other's. Only great song's get to wear that Prize!!! How many People agree with Me?
Unbelievable! Live on Conan and perfect. Sounds like the original recording. That's the measure of a band, playing live, balls out and nailing it! No bands do that anymore because they're few and far between.. I give cracker 5 stars on this video and a bowl of soup!
I missed a lot of music during the 90s and 00s when bringing up my family and working, but came across this song when I recently watched 'RECTIFIED' on Sundance and was blown away by it . Great song and show!
Saw them live in Boston outdoors at Gov't Center in a free show headlining 3 or 4 other bands. Can't remember the year, but Brandy Wood was bassist at the time. Hearing this live made me appreciate it all the more.
In 1993 I won concert tickets from the local college radio station. Three bands in Hershey Pa: Cracker, Gin Blossoms, with the Spin Doctors headlining. The Spin Doctors sucked (we left three songs in), Gin Blossoms killed it, but Cracker blew me away! Instantly a life long fan, and David's songwriter was a huge inspiration to my own. 30 years later, they're still going strong. Cracker rocks!
The JC120 for clean or he has them both on together to give definition. I used to do that with a Mesa Boogie Mark IIb and a Lab Series L5.. What a combination. Run in stereo with a Boss CE1. The big honking metal pedal. God knows what that would be worth today. The chorus circuit in the CE-1 is the same they used in the JC120.
Million poppies will definitely make you sleep, and just that rose knows my name.. ive been low, like a junkie cosmonaut.. you feel like youre a million miles below everyone elses feet. A million miles, a million miles!😢 Well put.. and the rythm mirrors the repetative waves of withdraw smooth then hard
What a fabulous band! Great song! When you're good, know how to compose a wonderful song, and know what you're doing, you don't need any of the nonsense and frills most bands rely on.
I know his sister, Sandra Lowery, and niece Jenna Lowery. A VERY TALENTED FAMILY. Sandra has cerebral palsy, but worked at our neighborhood YMCA for years while raising a wonderful daughter - who is now a Redlands City Council member. Sandra also has the gift of reading tarot cards - often with pinpoint accuracy!
Awesome song from an awesome band Still going, along with CVB ... Lowery now teaching, Lovering back with Pixies and Johnny Hickman still playing guitar Kerosene Hat one great album, and still sounds it
+Tribute2JohnnyB I just looked up this video because I only today discovered that the lead singer of this band was lead singer of Camper van Beethoven, and now you're blowing my mind that the drummer of one of my favorite bands was part of this band at one point. Holy shit.
Often when you hear a band live they either sound nothing like they do on the album or they sound like shit. This on the other hand is bloody spectacular, sounds a hell of alot like it should and does on the album.
Kid grows up in Redlands, CA- makes good. As an aside, I think Conan has been the most engaging of the talk show host with his musical guests. His show has gotten better since he left NBC and went to TBS.
Heard this on the radio, I didn't know what it was but I thought it sounded cool. So I took out my music recognition app on my phone and recorded the song and told me the name. Here I am now :D
You know a band is talented when they sound just as good or even better live than they do in a studio. These guys are amazing!
Yes
They are killer live! Agreed.
I think the guitar solo sounds better live. It’s a simple, tasteful solo.
Throwing down!!!
That’s not talent. That’s mindfulness.
One of the most underrated songs of the 90's
Omg yes. This song and Get Off This are so awesome.
Underrated? This song was on the radio nonstop in the '90s. Like it was literally everywhere. So tired of people who don't get what "underrated" means. 😆
more 4 us, dude
Among the best rock songs ever! Perfect blend of lyrics, vocals, instruments, and atmosphere-unique
100% agree. This song is amazing
They really nailed those harmonies in the chorus.
It kind of makes the song
Gotta love songs about heroin!
I took bands like this for granted back in the day. Shame on me.
Shame on us all, pal. Well, we've been punished. Karma.
How would we have known? Know the shit is Beyoncé !!! We are screwed to put it nice!
fucking moving words, guys. but utterly true, isn't it? We're fucked in every way with music right now. Takes hours to find anything good
Music that blows you away after 30 years as much as it did when you first heard it...now thats saying something.
I am lucky to have found them still. Good music will always be appreciated.
The lead singer, David Lowery, teaches at UGA now and he's my music business professor.
When I was at UGA, we were going to see Camper Van Beethoven at 40 watt
What? That's crazy! I've lived in Athens for a while now and I had no idea he was at UGA.
Amazing.
That is absolutely great
Who that uncle Jessi on lead?
This song is amazing! it's like Tom Petty mixed with Grunge!
Hi I Recommend checking out an Indie Rock Song called 'Looking Into the mirror' By Robert Nix
@@redskies4530 That was painful
Good summation
One of the most underrated BANDS of the 90's
I'm 72. This song never gets old. In my top 10 of all time. And that's a long time ✌️
the 90's were so great ....this is just 1 of so many great songs of that decade
totally agree.
One of the best songs of all time!! Never get tired of listening to this!
A million poppies used to make me sleep. But not anymore. Anyway my dude on the bass is killing it with those background vocals!!!
Poppies,but no wallflower. I could hear him
Better than Bob Rupe IMO.
Amen to that
Now that you mention it, backing vocals are quite good here
One of the best songs of the 90's, easily! Top 3!
It blows my mind how similar this sounds to the studio version. I'm very impressed.
that rift is so heavy hits a dark place in my mind that im all to familiar with
It’s a spiraling sound.
Darkly beautiful poetic.
A Perfect song! Complete with David Lovering of the Pixies on drums!!!
I didn't notice that until you pointed it out. Cool.
Holy crap! This sounds just like the album!
I remember when this song came out, I loved it and still do over 20yrs later.
Add another decade to that 20 years, and it's still a wicked tune...
Incredible performance.
I want the 90's Back!
They were so freakin good live. One of the best I have ever seen. When I saw them around 96 or 97, they opened with Low. Pretty ballsy considering it was really was/is their most well known song. It is like they wanted to get it out of the way to put it out of everyone's mind.
Damn, this song better every time I hear it. Killer band. They should let these guys play forever.
God I love this song so much brings back good time
memories of a younger me that was happy and jamming
in an old 80s Chrysler to a timeless rock anthem.
Addictive song.
I miss you 90's. More than you can imagine.
Me too
Me three
This song kicks ass.. its like the summer of love meets the 90s
Great! Had to revisit this killer jam after not hearing it for years.. It holds up well in today's world..
At 2:21 "Like some junkie cosmonaut" the guys are dancing so perfectly together and in time its satisfying as fuck to watch
Yeah their adrenaline was cascading down their backs.great moment
The 90's were amazing for music
Very well written song. one of my fav's from it's time.
Absolutely the greatest song to come out of the Nineties!! Hand's Down!! How many song's have been played in Sporting Events . This one and other's. Only great song's get to wear that Prize!!! How many People agree with Me?
love this song , it takes me back to a better times
Now THIS is the grunge of my youth.
+ᒍᗩᗰᕮᔕ ᑭᗩᗯᔕOᑎ So good to hear it again after all these years!!
Same here!
Totally!!
Hey! It's James Pawson! 👋😎👍👍
@@SkragorSkumdreg haha, hey buddy 🙂
Man, This is the best l have ever heard them Play this Song. The vocals Rock!!! Who Agree's?
Unbelievable! Live on Conan and perfect. Sounds like the original recording. That's the measure of a band, playing live, balls out and nailing it! No bands do that anymore because they're few and far between.. I give cracker 5 stars on this video and a bowl of soup!
this song gets played on the radio literally every day and i still rock out when i hear it come on when im at work
Killer song the riffs are eternal I can always rock out to this song. Back when music was music!
I definitely took bands like this for granted, unfortunately. Saw them in Philly last night 1-17-20 awesome show !
Great song and great performance!!
Lucky! This is one of my favorite songs from that generation. Just has such a good sound.
Damn. That is a really great song! I'm going to listen to it again...
damn. haven't heard this song in many moons. Still Love It!
The timing of when the vocals come in is everything with this song
I missed a lot of music during the 90s and 00s when bringing up my family and working, but came across this song when I recently watched 'RECTIFIED' on Sundance and was blown away by it . Great song and show!
Love this song and this Live Version is Bad Ass!
Saw them live in Boston outdoors at Gov't Center in a free show headlining 3 or 4 other bands. Can't remember the year, but Brandy Wood was bassist at the time. Hearing this live made me appreciate it all the more.
This song ROCKS ! It does not get the air play it deserves from the classic rock stations! It is real classic ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow….this song gives me THE CHILLS
In 1993 I won concert tickets from the local college radio station. Three bands in Hershey Pa: Cracker, Gin Blossoms, with the Spin Doctors headlining. The Spin Doctors sucked (we left three songs in), Gin Blossoms killed it, but Cracker blew me away! Instantly a life long fan, and David's songwriter was a huge inspiration to my own. 30 years later, they're still going strong. Cracker rocks!
kick ass song! didn't know this song existed until i heard it on the radio a few mos ago. gotta quit living under a rock.
awesome. this song will NEVER get old.
Love this song and great performance!
One of the best songs ever.
Slammin' live performance! Tight! 🔥🔥🔥
1) props to the audio engineer. That's a great mix for how loud the stage must have been.
2) that fender amp/JC120 combination us interesting.
Is it though
The JC120 for clean or he has them both on together to give definition. I used to do that with a Mesa Boogie Mark IIb and a Lab Series L5.. What a combination. Run in stereo with a Boss CE1. The big honking metal pedal. God knows what that would be worth today. The chorus circuit in the CE-1 is the same they used in the JC120.
Absolutely loved these guys back in the day. I just realized I still love them like some junkie cosmonaut
I miss these songs! Need to put them back on the radio.
This guys are playing at my friends house in July I swear to god. I can't fucking wait to go nuts when they play this
I want in
Saw them with Gin Blossoms and Spin Doctors in 1993. Such a fun show. Great band.
Wow that’s heck of a line up!
Without a doubt one of the most underrated bands of the 90's.
We didn't know how good we had it!
Its all down hill from here and not in a good way
Ouch.
there is still a lot of amazing music just maybe not as popular which isn’t that bad imo
The drummer is my spirit animal. Shmooth
I wore the Kerosene Hat album out back in the day!!!!!!
OMG, last night on my way home from school, this song came on the radio. Its really cool.
Songs like this kept me alive through the 90s. 23 years sober today.
Absolutely friggin' amazing tune!!! God I love awesome music!
90s rock is a long lost art
they sound fucking great live
Great lyrics! Great Musicians. Nice guys, too.
I love the cloud graphic in the back. Why don't they still do shit like that? It looks awesome.
anyghost Probably the same reason they don't do good music anymore either. Or good television shows.
Idk you never rly see people do that, other than Pink Floyd ofc but I love it and there should definitely be a visual affect added to music
Live music*
Million poppies will definitely make you sleep, and just that rose knows my name.. ive been low, like a junkie cosmonaut.. you feel like youre a million miles below everyone elses feet. A million miles, a million miles!😢
Well put.. and the rythm mirrors the repetative waves of withdraw smooth then hard
This is literally amazing.
Like always kicked asses. Cracker is great!!!
Saw these guys in Lawrence, Ks in '94 with Counting Crows. Awesome show!!
happy to see you guys have rebuilt since the nuking
Maravillosa canción. Que bien sigue sonando 23 años después.
what a great performance!!! some songs never get you low...
What a fabulous band! Great song! When you're good, know how to compose a wonderful song, and know what you're doing, you don't need any of the nonsense and frills most bands rely on.

This is a flawless performance
I never grow tired of this tune💛👍💫Thx 4 posting it 💫👸💫
I can't really disagree with you, but I'm seriously here for the music- that is ONE way we can unite all people....music knows no boundaries!
I love this song and this band..
These guys are the poster children for 90's music. Like a comet, bright flare and then quick burnout.
Not really...
I miss real music.
Love this song
Richmond, VA rocks.
what a song !!!!!those were the times!
Awesome song from an awesome band
Still going, along with CVB ... Lowery now teaching, Lovering back with Pixies and Johnny Hickman still playing guitar
Kerosene Hat one great album, and still sounds it
What a great song,it's up there with "happy birthday".....timeless!
I remember that song from my childhood... I never knew who sang it until years later. 90's rock was too good.
That was a pretty dam cool guitar solo.
That's Dave Lovering from The Pixies playing drums. Huh. *the more you know star*
+Tribute2JohnnyB holy shit haha. I never knew that. This is my first time watching them live, and I was thinking he looked like him. Turns out it was
+Tribute2JohnnyB I just looked up this video because I only today discovered that the lead singer of this band was lead singer of Camper van Beethoven, and now you're blowing my mind that the drummer of one of my favorite bands was part of this band at one point. Holy shit.
I just want to know what's going on with his rack mounted tom.
sntemp 😂 I was just wondering that myself 🤔😆
Jayson Davis Frank Black is the man
Often when you hear a band live they either sound nothing like they do on the album or they sound like shit.
This on the other hand is bloody spectacular, sounds a hell of alot like it should and does on the album.
Kid grows up in Redlands, CA- makes good. As an aside, I think Conan has been the most engaging of the talk show host with his musical guests. His show has gotten better since he left NBC and went to TBS.
this is how songs should sound
Damn, Cracker kicked ass on this performance!
Great job
Such a great song
I remember these days..........................I miss these days.
Loved this as a teen . Timeless is great music.
Heard this on the radio, I didn't know what it was but I thought it sounded cool. So I took out my music recognition app on my phone and recorded the song and told me the name. Here I am now :D
